For this Whovian, Linkara finally beating the crap out of Bennett for taking the piss out of it left me feeling decidedly... nice.

And did anyone else really want to make it all better when he had that woobie moment in Spoony's Final Fantasy review? And by "make it all better", I really mean make it all better.

While this troper had always thought Linkara was cute and funny, she didn't really develop squiggly feelings until the Terminator review when we found out that, no matter what happens, he'll always be a Future Loser. Blame it on her love of pitiful failures.

My favorite part of Adamantium Rage, besides what is mentioned above, is the evil little smirk on his face while Spoony is trying to beat the game. He just looks hot when he's smirking, knowing how right he is!

This troper is still trying to figure out why just seeing his arms in the Adamantium Rage opening had such an effect on her. She doesn't even have a thing about arms or anything, but... mmm.

I may be the only one who thinks like that, but there was something incredibly intimate about Spoony gently shoving him away to take care of the jump for Linkara.

A fellow Linkara/Spoony shipper! Those two together just... Goddamn.

For this troper, it was the moment during the opening theme when we see him reclining on the futon in sunglasses. Not only did it give her a better look at his face, but it was the first time she's actually seen him give a genuine smile. (And believe me, he has a great smile.) *Sigh* Yeah, I could watch that opening sequence all day....

This troper actually hadn't ever seen Linkara until she clicked that link and watched 'Adamantium Rage'. She'll be watching his entire section now... *ahem*

Also, he sings quite a bit in his review of Nightcat #1. He has a very nice, tenor voice. And then there was the whole "ninja-style dancing" thing...

The part when he sings "Rock candy baby, you're mine!" followed by, "I am such a nerd." Gawww...something about it was so freakin' cute! It made this troper want to huggle him.

Speaking of singing, the end of his "Silent Review Alt Endings" video where he sings "Fly Me To The Moon". This troper just about melted by the end. *siiiigh*

And again after the credits to his Dark Knight Strikes Again video when he starts singing "I Need a Hero." Whenever he starts singing, this troper just has to pause the video, squeal, and then continue watching!

His whole voice in general, actually.

Really? This Troper always thought he sounded like a baritone Wallace Shawn.

Anything with Harvey Finevoice in it. That's where this troper pretty much fell in love with him.

This troper had somehow skipped that video, but is eternally grateful to the previous troper for pointing it out. ...Um, yes.

Didn't he even say, "Sorry, fangirls?" Oh Linkara, you don't have to apologise. At all.

He was apologizing he was wearing shorts, meaning he's sorry there was no chance to see his rear.

This troper literally squealed in his entrance the the Anniversary Special...just his badass pose while holding the gun was friggin awesome. I watched that over and over and gave a note that would make Harley Quinn jealous every time.

This is going to sound very bizarre, but this Troper thinks she fell for him when he refused to mock furries in his Countdown prologue. She's not one herself, but it does bother her that furries appear to be the exception to the Your Kink Is Okay principle, and it was just so damn decent of him not to engage in that (and call the audience on it!) that she went all fuzzy inside. The fact that he doesn't swear with nearly the same frequency or severity as the other reviewers doesn't hurt, either.

The ending of his first Silent Hill episode where he went all sinister. Usually-nice guys suddenly acting evil? Yes, please.

Speaking of him acting sinister, the ending of Bimbos In Time.

Speaking of sinister, please reference the end of the Ultimates 3: #5. *faints*

Another time when he's acting sinister and it's adorable - the Spoony-Linkara Warrior review. Linkara as Dr. Insano, doing the maniacal giggle = this troper nearly fainting from fangirlish glee.

Oh, lord, as if things weren't bad enough, this troper just saw his Countdown review. His sweet little face when he said, "Harley Quinn..." Dear god; I thought I wanted to corrupt him before... What kind of fetish causes a gal to fangirl over someone who fanboys over someone who fangirls? I don't know, and I'm living it. It's not even I-Wish-I-Were-Harley (that's a different kink); there's something else about it.

this troper was already fangirling for him due to all the above reasons, but for some reason he just seems all the hotter after his recent review with NC. *sigh*

Maybe it's because he's wearing the NC's clothes at the beginning. Hot uncomfortable guy tugging on his tie = UNF.

In addition to everything else already listed this troper thinks Linkara has one of the most adorable smiles she's ever seen.

Agreed! The way he sticks his chin out a bit (I think) just makes me wanna hug his face.

Every time Linkara rants about sexism and sexualization of women in comics I get the most wonderful feeling.

This troper may just have some very weird kinks10:48, February 3, 2012 (UTC)10:48, February 3, 2012 (UTC)~~, but she thinks Linkara is hot when he was tipsy/drunk in the "Goodbye Suede" video. Well, hotter than he normally is. ... Well, the fact that he was pointing his crotch to the camera didn't help matters.

It doesn't help that he has some pretty blue eyes IMHO (though half the time, you can't see them due to the lighting).

OK I have to ask — where is a video where you can see his eyes (I have a thing for dark hair/blue eyes combo too!)

Wait, doesn't the close-up of him putting his glasses on in the opening theme song clearly show his eyes being brown?

This troper had to check, but after a few opening montages, his eyes are blue. A very beautiful blue.

And as definitive proof, they're very clearly blue in a close-up shot during Linkara's crossover review with Phelous on The Airzone Solution.Screencapped for your convenience.

This troper is more than willing to admit that he fangirls massively over all the evil characters on this site. But while Ask That Guy is pretty and scary and Insano is hot and needs cuddles, Mechakara is the one who he really wants to sleep with. That evil laugh in the 2010 preview? Oh Gawd...

This troper had an EXTREMELY unexpected reaction to his Magneto voice in the Ultimates 3 review. Take away the fact that he's speaking for, y'know, Magneto, and... *trails off, forgets what was being said*

Thank Jesus CHRIST that I wasn't the only one who thought that that voice was sexy.

He has a SWORD. A replica saber. My life is complete. (Admittedly, this might be an isolated fetish ...)

Not necessarily - this troper thought that part was awesome; he was totally badass at that moment! Then again, I have a thing for guys with swords - I'm engaged to a guy who collects katanas whose idea of a going-off-to-college gift for me was a bokken!

Oh god this troper is just now watching that vid and had to put it on pause to rush to this page to say the same thing!

D8 Did I miss a video? When does this happen???

If I recall correctly he pulls out the violin during the Ultimates 3 #3 and 4 review.

Linkara's webcomic - his recent valentine comic just made this troper want to tacklehug him and smother him in kisses.

This troper first had a thing for Suede because he was an anime fan and oh God that accent... Sure Linkara was cute 'n' all but it wasn't until the Pitt #1 review when he made a joke about Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's she fell hard for him and later on for most of the above reasons. Also on his deviantArt account, he uses anime emoticons. She has no idea why she finds the fact that a grown man uses the ^-^ emoticon so damn cute and desirable, but damn.

Was there any kink that the two-part showdown with Mechakara didn't cater to? Bondage, mild stripping, choking, many copies of Linkara running around, leather gloves, a completely evil murderous Robot Psychopath, gunporn, knifeporn, a multitude of Geeky Turn Ons, a zombie with ruffled hair, mind control, whatever kink is inspired by watching someone get beaten within an inch of their life and looking all dishevelled and helpless on the floor, blood-fetish, electroshock torture...

It's like he read this page...

When Linkara walked in on Mechakara, I thought, "I call middle!"

80's Chick.

Now that she exists, this troper is currently in a paradox of being both gay and straight for Linkara. The scruffy hair, eyeliner and small chest help a little.

I keep hearing mention of 80's Chick, and I have yet to see it... Could some nice troper provide a link?

You too, huh? *swoons right along with you* Must be the theater geek in me, but now I really want to see him quote Shakespeare ...

Oh, my gosh totally and completely thirded! This English major troper had to stop the video and squeal, because otherwise she was going to faint - can't decide if it was just the fact that he was reciting poetry, the voice while reciting poetry, a combination of the two, or what, but either way I was a happy fangirl!

Mechakara's reaction to his voice when he's got Linkara all tied up... It made me realize how much I like it when nice guys (or their robot doppelgangers) get angry.

Not sure if this is the right place for it, but after Part 2 of Kickassia! I expect there to be a lot of Linkara / Marz Gurl shipping.

This troper was already a Linkara / Marzgurl shipper, and can safely say the "taking comfort in his masculine arms" scene definitely cemented it! :) That Big No and ditching mask and his beloved Nice Hat to run to her side? *Squees like the hopeless romantic fangirl she is* Granted, that scene also had me laughing for five straight minutes so hard that I couldn't breathe, but that's not the point!

Oh my god I thought I was the only one!

In part 5 of Kickassia Linkara becomes Ensign Munro and begins to formulate a plan to take down the Nostalgia Critic. I can't have been the only one who found General Linkara rather...interesting.

I have the curious problem of simultaneously wanting him to be my big brother and absolutely swooning every time he gives off a righteous rant/shows off his incredible intellect/opens his mouth to sing.

You Are Not Alone! This troper wants him to be her little brother. Based solely on his videos and the very small interaction she's had with him on Twitter and the TGWTG message system, she really just wants to adopt him. He's adorable.

An entire review by Harvey Finevoice, complete with more singing over the end credits. And onscreen this time.

This troper had to stop the review and squeal several times while he was singing. I called my sister over and we both squealed like schoolgirls.

She proves just as much a Geeky Turn On for those of us interested in the ladies by suiting up in Linkara's outfit while scored with Song For Ten.

Iron Liz full stop. I don't even know why but everything about that woman is some form of turn-on for me. Linkara, you be happy I have a rule about not going after people who are called-for.

Linkara and Liz teaming up to kick ass will get people lightheaded no matter which team they play for. And it crosses into Crowning Moment Of Heartwarming when the real life couple shares a warm hug upon being reunited.

Harvey Finevoice with a tommy gun. That is all.

Yes indeedy. Those of you who are looking for some closeups of his pretty blue eyes, take note....

In the Warrior #1 review, Linkara was wearing Dr. Insano's outfit. The neck of Dr. Insano's shirt is quite large, so it showed off more of his neck and a bit of his shoulders. I have no idea what fetish that's supposed to fuel, but it still gave me squiggly feelings.

This Troper is probability the only one but during Linkara's review of the TMNT Meets Archie comic there is a panel that has a stereotypical Abandon All Hope Ye Who Enter Here sign over as doorway. In response Linkara quotes the section in Dante's Inferno where the phrase comes from and does so in a voice in a tone that matches perfectly and is just down right sexy sounding.

Something similar happened in Top 15 Missed Opportunities of AT 4 W. Number 14 was during the truck funeral convoy in US 1 #1 Linkara briefly sings a fake song about the convoy set to "The Funeral March", doing so in a gorgeous deep voice and he isn't a bad singer either...

Actually not a fake song, just a minor key slowed-down version of the chorus to C. W. McCall's Convoy.

Why do you find 90's Kid so cute, self? Why? He would drive you crazy in real life. He's not all that complex a character. He loves violence and guns and bad art. WHY?

This troper is right there with you. He even got a little extra thrill when we got to see his legs in the Power Ranger's review.

After learning about Linkara's dark past as "Psyweedle", this troper (out of sheer curiosity) entered his old handle into a search engine...and discovered a message board where he used to post frequently. Among other things, she learned that he supports gay rights and has a thing for Cat Girls. Oh, and he once cosplayed as The Crowfor a Halloween party. Homina homina homina....

A nerdy, cute guy with a lisp and a sweet hat who loves Power Rangers? And then from the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers Season 2 review: "You know what I did in high school? I was on the speech team, I was in several musicals, I played violin..." *shudder* Happy as I am for Iron Liz and him, that made me wish he...uh...played for the other team...

What? No love for Linkara in a black robe for his cameo in Spoony's review of "Bloodwings: Pumpkinhead's Revenge"?

Am I the only one who thought that Linkara looked incredibly handsome and mature when he cosplayed as Lt. Munroe at the end of his "Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force" review?

Oh hey Linkara. Gonna do a Joker voice at the end of "15 Comics I Will Never Review", huh? Okay, that's cool. I'll, uh. I'll just go over here...not like it gave me shivers or anything...definitely not good shivers, either...nope...

This troper had no idea who Linkara was...until she finally got around to watching the anniversary brawl. (What can I say, I'm late to the party. I only found out about the TGWTG crew at all because of This Very Wiki!) For some reason, she gets the giggles every time she watches him snap at the Nerd that "I'm not an idiot!" There's something freakishly adorable about the man. And the followup line of "It's magic, bitch!" somehow excites me.

Iron Liz in a sports bra, fingerless fishnet gloves, and high heeled boots at the end of her review of the Star Wars roleplaying game.

This troper feels very strange every time she sees Linkara's little smirk that he has every time he makes a joke.

Ummm... okay, it's also a Crowning Moment Of Funny but in the Silent Hill Dead/Alive alternate ending video when he's doing the Thriller dance, this troper was torn between laughing her head off and fangirling, considering he was so cute doing the dance moves!

Linkara's enraged ranting over the senseless death of a small child during the final issue of Cry for Justice. It wasn't what you'd call a "turn on", and yet...I didn't know whether to be frightened or give him a hug of appreciation.

Shirtless Pyramid-head cosplaying Linkara in Cry for Justice. Full stop.

Okay, I'm seconding both the troper above me and Iron Liz here about the idea of Linkara in a DS 9 uniform... That just makes me a very happy fan girl... (And now having seen the Grand Finale to Spoony's Final Fantasy X review it's as nice in practice as it is in theory. Dang he makes that uniform look good!)

The Bimbos BC review, in which he punches the Cinema Snob in the face, drags him into the hotel room, and insists in a delightfully deep and aggressive voice that they are going to review it. More please?

Even better: it's Spoony's "Goddamn Avatar" costume. I'm beginning to think it's impossible for a guy to look bad in that outfit.

The softer voice he used for most of it, especially during Part 3. Wow. And more singing, too!

In the At4W commentary for Suburban Knights, Liz mentions that she used to be part of the SCA and did heavy weapons fighting. In armor. With rattan swords. Just when I thought I couldn't possibly have more of a girl-crush on her than I already did, she goes and tells us that ... *swoons*

In February of 2011, Lewis was on LordKat's livestream chat while the two of them were playing Tribes. LordKat spontaneously started singing Lady Gaga 's "Bad Romance"...and Lewis joined in, singing the chorus. (This was about two months before he did the Lady Gaga comic review, in which he officially outted himself as a fan.) When Lewis had finished singing, LK joked that they should try singing it badly on purpose; Lewis replied, "No. I like that song." The whole thing just made me melt.

This (Australian) troper has something of a thing for Midwestern Accents, and I say, Linkara has quite a nice one.

The classy way he handled his breakup with Liz. More proof that he's truely a nice guy.

How 'bout that brown leather jacket during the "Star Trek III: The Search For Spock" review? Sure, it was just a shout out to the movie, but it looked nice.

I didn't notice this until now, but his clown persona "Boffo" is just utterly adorable. He wanted to create an antithesis to the "evil clown" trope and boy did he succeed.

He poses shirtless underneath a blanket in his Vanilla Ice review. "Draw me like one of your French girls." :D

Okay, I didn't know I needed to do this, and it's been nearly a month since Longbox of the Damned started, but seriously... MOARTE. Just wow, Moarte. That accent, that outfit, his insistence on calling his audience "my children", that delicious manaical laugh... dammit, Linkara, you've done it again! :D

This troper is shocked--SHOCKED--that Jaeris isn't on here yet. Blond, long-haired, gunslinging, trenchcoated pretty boy with a Southern accent, going from terrifying villain to huggable woobie in the space of a few second's of footage? Not enough UNF in the world.

As far as the AT4W movie is concerned, I feel I should preface my submission. The movie was everything I'd expect from it. Long monologues about character and morality, lots of waxing poetic, some melodrama, everyone having a great time making it, it was a Linkara movie in the best way possible. That said, Captain Romero. I know her actor actually did a lot behind the scenes, too, and I always feel kind of bad objectifying someone like this, but with all my respect for her as a legitimate actor out of the way, here goes. Cute short-haired astronaut badass. I saw her, thought "They're really not going to see her again, she's a minor character. Can we cut back to her ASAP?" immediately. Then she got turned into a drone by Mechakara, and we got amazing mind-control acting that was still, well, actual acting (in other words, it was amazing), and the rare dom!Linkara. While I normally don't have much of an attraction to the guy other than an incredible respect and fan devotion, those scenes, well... Nobody else at least cared about the Caelestis scenes half because of that?
